The Winslow Bulldogs had a busy week with games at Holbrook and in the Wolves Classic Tournament at Goodyear. The young Bulldogs did not fare well, losing to Holbrook, winning one and losing two in the tournament, and losing to Snowflake, leaving them with a 7-10-1 record.

The Roadrunners defeated the Bulldogs 10-0 in Holbrook last Tuesday in a game that was shortened to five innings due to the 10-run rule.

Holbrook scored four runs in the bottom of the first inning, two in the second and four more in the bottom of the fourth inning.

In their first game of the Wolves Classic, the Bulldogs lost to tournament host Estrella Foothills, 8-0. They were held to just two hits in the shutout. The Wolves took a 3-0 lead in the first inning and increased it to 8-0 in the bottom of the second. The Bulldogs held them scoreless the rest of the game, but the damage was done.

The Bulldogs had a much better showing in their second tournament game, beating the Maryvale Panthers 16-4. Both teams scored three runs in the first inning, but the Bulldogs took a 7-3 lead in the top of the second. Both teams scored a run in the third inning, but the Bulldogs increased their lead to 10-4 in the top of the fourth and to 11-4 in the top of the fifth. A five-run sixth inning completed the scoring and ended the game under the 10-run rule when Maryvale did not score in the bottom of the inning.

Alec Williams got the win, giving up four runs, only one of which was earned, on just two hits and three walks.

The Bulldogs had 19 hits. Williams was 2 for 2. Jalen Lyons, Ricardo Villanueva and Daniel Vizcaya were all 3 for 4. A.J. Huerta was 2 for 4. Brennan Sawyer was 2 for 5. Jacob Guerrero and Nick Reyes were 1 for 4.

In their last game on Friday, the Bulldogs dropped a close 5-3 game to the Northwest Christian Crusaders. The Bulldogs led 1-0 after the top of the third inning, but the Crusaders scored three times in the bottom of that inning, then increased their lead to 5-1 in the bottom of the fifth. The Bulldogs cut the lead to 5-3 in the top of the sixth, but fell despite outhitting the Crusaders.
